IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. CAUTION To prevent electrical shock, do not mate unit connector until installation is complete and power is supplied to the unit. 2. CAUTION This fixture provides more than one power supply output source. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both normal and emergency sources by turning off the branch circuit and by disconnecting the unit connector. 3. CAUTION This is a sealed unit. The integral, high temperature Ni-Cad battery is not replaceable. Replace the entire unit when necessary and recycle or dispose of the nickel-cadmium battery properly. 4. DO NOT USE OUTDOORS. The is for use with grounded, UL Listed, indoor fixtures. Not for use in heated air outlets or hazardous locations. 5. The requires an unswitched power source of either 120 or 277 volts. Properly cap the unused lead. 6. The and ballast must be on the same branch circuit. 7. Do not mount near gas or electric heaters. INSTRUCTION MANUAL 8. The should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by unauthorized personnel. 9. The will cold strike and operate one 18W/26W, quad tube, compact fluorescent lamp, two-pin base, including integral starter, each with a single lampholder per lamp. 10. The can be used with one or two lamp fixtures; however, only one lamp can be operated in emergency mode. 11. The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition. 12. Do not use this equipment for other than intended use. 13. Install in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local regulations. 14. Installation and servicing should be performed by qualified personnel. 15. Lighting fixture manufacturers, electricians, and end-users need to ensure product system compatibility before final installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: Before installing, make certain the power is off and the unit connector is disconnected. 1. MOUNTING THE When used with ceiling mounted downlight fixtures, the should be mounted on the fixture above the ceiling. The flex conduit marked A should be wired into the ballast/lamp compartment or to an electrical junction box on the fixture which allows access to the ballast/lamp connections. Refer to Illustration 1 for typical mounting. When battery packs are remote mounted, the remote distance can not exceed 1 /2 of the distance from ballast to lamp specified by the ballast manufacturer. For example, if the ballast manufacturer recommends no more than 25 remote distance, then the battery pack should not exceed 12 1 /2. Under no circumstances should the battery pack exceed a distance of 50 from the lamp. 2. MOUNTING THE AND LIGHT Cut a single gang switch box into the ceiling tile adjacent to the fixture within reach of the flex marked B. After mounting the switch box, connect flex B to the box and route all leads inside the box. Refer to Illustration 1 for typical mounting. Connect the leads to the components as follows: Red/Blk or Red lead w/connector (+) Charge light terminal Wht/Red lead ( ) Charge light terminal White *Wht/Blk lead Unit connector White/Black *Wht/Blk lead Unit connector Test switch * To prevent electrical shock and unintentional battery discharge, do not join the unit connector until the installation is complete. 3. WIRING A. The and ballast must be on the same branch circuit. B. The requires an unswitched power source of either 120 or 277 volts; therefore, when used with switched fixtures, the input must be wired ahead of the switch. C. Refer to the wiring diagrams on the back page for the proper wiring.

4. LABELS Attach the appropriate labels adjacent to the Test Switch and Charge Indicator. Annotate Re-lamping label for lamp type and wattage. The Caution and the Re-lamping labels must be on the fixture in a readily visible location to anyone attempting to service the fixture. 5. COMPLETING INSTALLATION When the installation is complete, switch the power on and join the unit connector. OPERATION General This unit is primarily designed to be used with compact fluorescent lamp downlight fixtures. It will wire in conjunction with the existing ballast(s) and lamp(s) to provide the emergency function. It can also be wired for emergency only operation. The Test Switch and Charge Indicator light are offered for installation in a standard single gang switch box adjacent to the fixture. Normal Mode power is present. The ballast operates the fluorescent lamp(s) as intended. The is in the standby charging mode. The Charge Indicator will be lit providing a visual indication that the battery is being charged. Emergency Mode The power fails. The senses the power failure and automatically switches to the Emergency Mode. One lamp is illuminated, at reduced output, for a minimum of 90 minutes. When the power is restored, the switches the system back to the Normal Mode and resumes battery charging. See page 1 of the Instruction Manual. ING & MAINTENANCE Initial Testing Allow the unit to charge approximately 1 hour, then conduct a short discharge test by depressing the Test Switch. The Charge Indicator light will go out and the fluorescent tube will be illuminated. When the is used in fixtures with more than one ballast, the second ballast is NOT de-energized with the Test Switch. It may, therefore, be advisable to switch the fixture power off prior to depressing the Test Switch. Allow a 24 hour charge before conducting a one hour test. The is a maintenance free unit, however, periodic inspection and testing is required. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, outlines the following schedule: Monthly Insure that the Charge Indicator light is illuminated. Conduct a 30 second discharge test by depressing the Test Switch. One lamp should operate at reduced output. Annually Insure that the Charge Indicator light is illuminated. Conduct a full 1 1 /2 hour discharge test. The unit should operate as intended for the duration of the test. Written records of testing shall be kept by the owner for inspection by the authority having jurisdiction. SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. Consult Customer Service or visit www.iotaengineering.com for current warranty information. Page 3
